BENEFITS OF SHEA BUTTER

Firstly, it helps retain moisture and lessen the loss of water by forming a barrier on the skin’s surface. Secondly, it also works to reduce the appearance of rough patches and dry flakes on the skin.  It also works as an anti-inflammatory, helping to soothe itchy, irritated or sunburnt skin. Best of all, it naturally absorbs UVB rays to protect the skin from the sun, and has antioxidant properties as potent as those of green tea and olive.

BENEFITS OF MANGO BUTTER

You can find Mango Butter in our Bath By Riley Products, including our TUBCAKES!

Mango Butter is obtained from the kernels of the mango tree. It has a high content of stearic acid which makes it similar to Cocoa Butter. Mango Butter has good emolliency and lends protection against the sun. It is said to prevent drying of the skin and formation of wrinkles. Mango Butter also reduces degeneration of skin cells and restores elasticity. Mango Butter's hardness makes it a great butter for stick formulations such as lip balm and lotion bars. It can be used "as is" to provide relief from the dryness of eczema and psoriasis.

WHY BODY BUTTER?

Why body butter?
Richer than a lotion, body butter is a nutrient dense cream that is applied liberally to the skin. Body butter can be derived from mango butter, shea butter, or any other natural butter.

Benefits of Body Butter?
The first benefit of using a body butter is hydration. You skin actually absorbs all of the products that we put onto it, including body butters. This is because they are an extreme emollient that does two things: hold moisture in and keeps dryness out. Body butters actually act as a natural barrier for the skin.
Nourishment is the second benefit of using a body butter. They’re excellent for nourishment because of their ingredients. These ingredients are high in both omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants. The omegas repair the skin and antioxidants keep the skin from being damaged further. Popular oils that are often made into body butters are mango, kukui, cocoa, and shea butters. The last benefit of using a body butter on your skin is the softening effect that it has. Body butters help to smooth the skin over time. In fact, some body butters are so powerful that their effects can actually be seen instantly.

BATH BY RILEY OFFERS A BODY BUTTER SOUFFLE THAT IS SURE TO LEAVE YOUR SKIN HYDRATED.  WE OFFER OVER 20 DIFFERENT SCENTS OF BODY BUTTER! BODY BUTTER GOES A LOT FURTHER THAN A REGULAR LOTION, MAKING OUR PRODUCT MORE AFFORDABLE AT ONLY $20!  CONTACT ME TO ORDER!

BENEFITS OF EXFOLIATING

Many times it doesn't matter how much lotion you are slapping on your skin, if you are not exfoliating your skin on a regular basis, your skin cannot absorb all the benefits your moisturizer has to offer. This is due to your pores being clogged by the dead skin cells your skin has shed. Clogged pores makes your skin look dry and dehydrated...you know that flaky skin look? That look is never "in."

Besides the normal places to exfoliate like your face, legs and arms; have you remembered to exfoliate your neck? Exfoliating your neck is often ignored. If you exfoliate your neck, it will give you a fresher look. What about your elbows and knees? I remember all too well what it felt like to have cracked, flaky elbows. It hurt to have dry skin in this area. Knees need to look polished too. You could be wearing that killer red dress, but when your dry knees peak out, it completely takes away from how gorgeous you look. What about your feet? Have you looked at your heels lately? This is something that needs to be taken care of daily, as dry cracked heels look pretty on no one. Also, exfoliating your feet before applying sunless tanning lotion helps prevent streaking. What about your lips? You can't have a great pucker if they are scaley and peeling.

Some of the benefits of exfoliating are:
  • It's ability to improve texture of your dull skin, making it more vibriant.
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Sloughs off the dead skin cells your body has shed.
  • Unclogs pores.
  • Keeps skin healthy, thus helping to prevent break-outs.
  • Helps retain your tan when you exfoliate before slapping on the sunscreen.
OUR HAND CANDIES, TUBCAKES, BATH FIZZLES, BODY BUTTER SOUFFLE, AND WHIPPED SUGAR SCRUB ARE THE PERFECT COMBINATION TO EXFOLIATE AND MOISTURIZE YOUR DELICATE SKIN! WE ALSO HAVE PEDI FIZZLES THAT ARE GREAT FOR YOUR PEDICURES!  TRY IT IN THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOME! CHECK THEM OUT!
